Sixty Feet Six Inches: Bob Gibson and Reggie Jackson Talk About How the Game is Played. Some interesting conversation on baseball and other topics. I never would have thought those two would do a book together... it's an odd coupling.

Also reading Heat Wave by Richard Castle... my guilty pleasure... it's based on the tv series "Castle" with Nathan Fillion. Just love that guy's work.

The Nixon Presidency: An Oral History of the Era. - Deborah Hart Strober & Gerald Strober

Had a Kindle, which I've learned doesn't take a 3-foot drop onto concrete, so I'm digging in to the TBR stack of real books. The current book is a chaser to my last read, Tom Wicker's biography of Nixon, One of Us.

In the Underworld - Laurie TaylorSociology/Criminology book about London's criminal underworld in the 1980's. The author, somewhat of an ivory tower academic, is given the Cook's tour by former Public Enemy #1, John McVicar (you may remember a Roger Daltrey film about him).

I also just ordered Tris Speaker: The Rough-and-Tumble Life of a Baseball Legend by Timothy M. Gay, which I hear is excellent.

Ball Four is to sports books what Citizen Kane is to movies. It gets props for being groundbreaking, but when you finally get around to reading/watching it you find out it pretty much sucks donkey chips.
